As a pivotal move in our global strategy, YAXI has officially established a new production base in Thailand, relocating core manufacturing operations for the U.S. market to this emerging hub. This decision reflects not only our acute understanding of global market dynamics but also a solemn commitment to corporate social responsibility.
Dual Value: Job Creation & Tariff Optimization
- The Thailand facility will significantly boost local employment, projected to create skilled positions in surrounding communities. By empowering the labor market, we aim to alleviate structural employment challenges in Southeast Asia – a core practice of YAXI’s “localized win-win” global vision.
- This strategic positioning effectively circumvents the 280% import tariff on LSVs in the U.S., allowing us to consistently deliver high-value premium products to North American customers while maintaining market competitiveness.
Precision in Global Supply Chain
- Critical Component Assurance:Maintaining partnerships with reliable Chinese suppliers, our aluminum chassis and carbon steel frames continue to be sourced from China manufacturers, ensuring reliability and durability in core structures.
- Premium Upgrades:Partnering with Thai premium suppliers for Toyota and Mazda, our upgraded components demonstrate significant higher durability than industry standards in wheel & tire testing, including salt spray testing, and ergonomic seats – delivering 200% customer experience enhancement despite major cost increase.
Innovation in Control Systems
In addition to the industry-Giant Curtis controllers, we offer a variety of control system options to suit different customer needs. Curtis, a long-established industry leader, is known for its reliability and maturity. On the other hand, Navitas, a rising star in the industry, brings a fresh and dynamic approach, with its controllers being particularly popular among family units due to their ease of use and innovative features. This parallel system approach allows us to provide customers with the best of both worlds.
Quality Commitment & Future Vision
- Our Thailand facility will begin trial production in Q1 2025 to adjust and optimize the production line.
- The first batch of products will be delivered to U.S. customers by mid-Q2 2025.
- YAXI is committed to continuous investment in technological and process upgrades to ensure top-quality products.
- We will increase our R&D investments to enhance every niche market we serve.
- As part of our global mission, YAXI is focused on promoting sustainability.
- In2025, we aim to make significant progress in incorporating renewable energy into our manufacturing processes, contributing to a greener planet and supporting global sustainability efforts.
Conclusion
In balancing globalization with localization, YAXI has chosen a path that integrates commercial rationality with a human-centered development approach. This approach goes beyond merely relocating production facilities—it marks the evolution of creating intelligent, sustainable ecosystems for manufacturing. By prioritizing the development of local markets and enhancing operational efficiency, we aim to provide not only the best products but also contribute to the well-being of the communities where we operate.
At YAXI, we believe in the power of innovation and sustainable development. Our commitment to renewable energy, technology upgrades, and continuous improvements ensures that we are always adapting to meet the needs of our global customers.
